செஷசாயின் ரமணமாலை

ஆழியலையாய் உயர்ந்த உயிரே
ராமனர்விலகில் அமைதி பெறுவாய்
கொடிதுயரில் சூழ்ந்த உடலே
ராமனரோளியில் மோட்சம் பெறுவாய்

சொந்தம்மில்லா பிரவிகேலாம்
தந்தை வடிவில் குருவுமுளார்
திசைகல்லில்லா போக்கை நீக்கி
தனது பழயணம் உனது என்பார்

வெகுளி வினைகள் இருளில் கண்ணீர்
மிடிமை நிறைந்த மனதில்லேலாம்
பிழைகள் நீக்கி சொந்தம் செய்ய
இருக்கும் ரமணா
போற்றி போற்றி
ரமண ஆத்மா
போற்றி போற்றி
ரமண ஆத்மா
போற்றி போற்றி

Opinion - The White Tiger

"

I guess, your Excellency, that I too should start off by kissing some god's arse.

Which god's arse though? There are so may choices.

See, the Muslims have one god.

The Christians have three gods.

And we Hindus have 36000000 gods.

Making a grand total of 36000004 divine arses for me to choose from.

When Salman Rushdie's Satanic Verses was banned, Muslim sentiments were cited. But here, Mr. Aravind Adiga, without sodomite intentions though, has raped his country and the religions that are contained within. What do we do? We garland him, we list him for "Indian of the Year" awards, we gift him gold-tipped pens, we lift him on our heads and cry out loud that he made our Nation proud by winning the Man Booker; and recommend him vigorously with sheer awe at how he made us proud and celebrated, by raping us and our identity in his 321-paged sin. We garland him and award him honours, when we ought to bang his bald pate with brass knuckles, banish him, his blasphemous ideas and his brilliantly snivelling book.

To all, who have not read the book, but have read the news bits raving about him, and have created a general intention to read the book sometime soon, create a specific aversion to him, and stay away from his book. He is after all a guy, who sold the dignity of his mother to earn accolades and riches.

Please save my Indian Face

The Indian ego has been busted. To the world now; The Kohinoor of 'India Inc.", the spearhead of "Surging India", the sheen of "Shining India" - the IT Industry - is just yet another humbug; yet another case of inflated credentials.

The trust we secured support by support, the confidence we built success by success, and the respect we gathered victory by victory, they will say now, are all the effects of dopes and drugs; Accounting Dopes that build bogus reserves, and corporate governance drugs that falsely resemble and exude a sense of carefully governed integrity.

The Indian Government cannot stand by and watch its own death. It is has to be aggressive and must show historic agility in the revamp process, for we are not prepared to take toothless excuses anymore.
Mr. Ramalinga Raju knows the "laws of the land" well, and so do we - that is why we say - "WE WANT CHANGE".

India's corporate studs and government torchbearers must understand - the common Indian is not a highway dog anymore. We know what is happening. We hear, we understand, we discrete. Ours lives have value and we need respect. We need accountable leaders and above all - WE NEED SATHYAM.

I SAY - "SLAY THE LIARS!" Lets hear the echoes, and lets gather the masses. Let us witness subsequent action. Let us see that change in governance, that is going to lift us billion Indians from the deep crevice of shame.
